CAKE WITH SEMOLINA, NUTS AND APPLES (my Mom's

Why I Love This Recipe

It's a cake that my prepared very often when I was a kid.

It's quick and simple to prepare, but surprisingly moist and tasty.

I used Extra Virgin Olive oil for this cake and that gave it a strong flovour, apart from making it a bit healthier than if it was made with butter or other oils. Nuts, grated apples and especially semolina give it a particular crumbly texture, and the syrup adds some moisture without making it too sweet.

I guess next time I'll add some grated lemon rind to the batter as well.
